Wilderness Therapy Programs in Alabama

Wilderness Programs in the state of Alabama is a place for your troubled teen to enjoy hiking, camping, cycling, canoeing and kayaking to horseback riding, fishing, hunting, scaling boulders and rappelling down canyons while learning the values of leadership and education. However there is currently not a troubled teen wilderness therapy program located in Alabama. Wilderness therapy programs sometimes referred to as Outdoor Education, have proven themselves to be a great opportunity for change in troubled teens.

Wilderness Programs are an alternative to Military Schools, Boarding Schools, and Substance abuse treatment centers.  This unique experience can be described as a "rite of passage," a transformational process that is difficult to find in our fast-paced, modern society. Therapists and counselors guide teens toward self-reliance and self-respect. The impact of these programs on troubled teens with such behavioral problems as low self-esteem, poor school performance, defiance of authority, depression, and drug or alcohol abuse has been well documented. Parents can feel confident that their children will get the treatment and care they need.

 

There are still many options available if you do not have a wilderness program in your area. Christian boarding schools for troubled teens can be vary valuable and have an extremely powerful impact. Abundant Life Academy's child placing specialists are dedicated to helping families of troubled teenagers find the very best possible solution.
